Guardiola estimates Man City’s chances of winning at the Bernabéu at 1%
Tomorrow, Manchester City will face Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu in the second leg of the Champions League preliminary knockout round. However, the team's head coach Pep Guardiola does not seem very optimistic about his side’s chances.
Details: To advance to the Round of 16, Man City needs a win, but the Spanish coach has given a rather low probability of such an outcome.
Quote:
"The percentage of our chances to win at the Bernabéu when trailing 2-3? It’s about 1%, I don’t know.
It will be minimal, but whatever it is, we will try to win, that’s for sure. The chance is small because the result wasn’t good: if the score had stayed 2-1, which changed in the last five minutes, it would have been different. But at 2-3, the chances are lower.
However, since we have a chance, we will take it and see what happens".
Reminder: Real Madrid’s starting center-back Antonio Rüdiger will be available for the match against Manchester City after missing the first leg due to injury.
